Niiiiiiiice

I'd have one but I'm scared of their engines

Cheers. Don't be. Like anything it depends how you treat it. The oil is half the price, easier to service (4 spark plugs under the car without needing to pull things a part to get to it.) And it's actually better than my R33 on fuel (until I start giving it some top end runs because this thing just doesnt run out of puff. :D). Sure it'll probably need a rebuild around 120,000. But hey, just an excuse to Bridgeport it. :bunny:

I always saw myself as a 34 GTR man but I fell in love with everything above plus the doors, race style interior/cockpit, and that sweet sweet rotor sound in the higher rev range.

Thanks Mandy. haha yeah I'm a bit of a maintainence freak. Gave it a 1.5 hr clean & wax today and covered up all the swirls, and already started mixing 2 stroke in the fuel. It's definitely like learning cars all over again but.

Hot As!

Where from?

Mods?

PM price please

Thanks, was a private sale. Last owner had it for 6 months but he has to bail over east. Was originally a Fabcar so it's in top knick.

It's got a Nardi Torino wheel, turbo back exhaust and BOV. It's pretty damn quick but. It's sitting on Rays Gram Lights. I don't like them but so if anyone wants to buy them let me know. :D

oh and a 7"eclipse deck with GPS that's only good for spitting cd's out and thats about it. lol.

price, was good. lol.

cant wait to see this around Rocky

Thanks guys. :bunny:

Pal, I'm sure you'll see it a lot as I moved back to Rockingham today and it's my daily until I fix the R33 4 door. Don't suppose you have a spare AFM I could borrow buy any chance to check if that's what's wrong? I gave it a clean coz it was idling rough and stalling at low rpm after I put the stock ECU back in with contact cleaner. then I think it made it die completely. :D

I get just over 400km's to a tank. (76Litres). That's normal driving. When you make use of the TT you can watch the fuel gauge drop. :D I've been driving it pretty conservatively but due to being on double or nothing and my daily is out of order atm.

      Installing the fuel sender O ring in R34 GTT

      By DraftySquash · Posted

      Another weekend and another project I have questions about.... I bought a fuel tank sender O ring to install on the car because I'm quite sus on what I've got now.  1. No "whooosh" sound when opening fuel cap 2. If I fill up full tank, there will be a small leak under the car and it comes from the top of the fuel tank, dripping along the side. Stops after a short while 3. Hot days = 50/50 chance to get high as a kite inside the cabin if the car was in the sun for too long This is what I bought: https://www.amayama.com/en/part/nissan/1734279900 My plan was to just replace the O ring but I've got some questions: 1. Does the whole fuel pump assembly need to come out for me to replace the O ring?         Or, could I unplug all the connectors and fuel lines at the top, take off the twisty part (17343) and put in the O ring from the top?  2. Is it a very common thing for everyone to just change the pump whenever doing this?        I see the Walbro 255 gets thrown in a lot but I've got no issues with my pump so far. When I did the tune, I asked the guy to check my fuel pressure and he said there were no issues too. But is it just a good idea to change to the 255 anyway as the old unit may have been in there for so long? The 255 seems to be a direct fit for GTT (I got no soldering iron)

      Speedtek 800hp Close Ratio Gearset

      By robbo_rb180 · Posted

      Normal speedtek issues, bin it and go cdoo# or 8hp. So many issues with these gearsets, a mate went through 3 rebuilds and multiple parts with heat, bearing and vibration issues.

      CAM COVER BILLET HALF MOON RB RUBBER REPLACEMENTS

      By Duncan · Posted

      I wouldn't go near them, they are rubber seals for a reason. Just chuck new cam cover seals, half moons and the spacers for the screws every decade or two. I add a really thin layer of silicone too and it seems to hold together OK

      CAM COVER BILLET HALF MOON RB RUBBER REPLACEMENTS

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      AFAIK on most Toyotas that half moon is usually an aluminum piece that you seal with RTV so you just source the valve cover gasket but I kind of doubt that you'll ever save money buying an aftermarket piece in this scenario.

      If I tossed my money in a fire and filled my transmission with sand, it would end with the same result as buying from Speedtek. Actually, that's not true... My way, I wouldn't have to deal with Speedtek's dick head of a CEO for years on end and all his lies.
